I've been busy doing busy things on the homestead the last couple of weeks so have been away from steemit a bit, but I've still found some time to keep scouting out new homesteaders and preppers.
Growth has slowed a bit after the massive burst of activity on all things steemit during May and June. But we are now up to 127 !!
I've decided to try a different arrangement of the list this time. Although steemit is a global platform I thought it might be useful to present the list in location groupings. This might help with local networking as well as online networking.
Florida, North Carolina and Texas in the US do seem to be the big locations for homesteaders and preppers. Is it the weather??
If anyone hasn't declared their location on their profile and would like it adding to the list let me know. Specifics aren't needed - just state or region will be fine.
Here is the latest list of homesteaders and preppers. My apologies if I have missed anyone from the list that has already contacted me - just post in the comments again. Or if you know anyone else who should be on the list let me know.

Another down to earther from Montana. After 30 years in the wilds of Alaska I relocated to Montana where I'll have a better chance at growing a wider variety of self-sustaining foods. Peaches, corn, squash, tomatoes, peppers and beans to name just a few that really don't mature in the rain forest of SE AK. The real big instigator that kicked me out of the rainforest and over the hump to MT was Fukushima. 3 nuclear reactor core meltdowns spewing their radioactive waste into the Pacific ocean directly upwind and upcurrent of the Left coast of America. There will be consequences. Anyway, I'll be sharing tips and tricks I've learned over the years so stay tuned to my blog @mtgoat
Current projects to be highlighted- A pergola for the grapes, 100 blueberries, a firewood buzz saw, converting a '53 FC Jeep to a log getter. There will be more.
Cheers Ya'll

Hi @farmstead, I'm surprised too. I thought Oregon was a pioneer part of the country, so would have a lot of homesteaders. Maybe they haven't found their way on to steemit yet!
Just for interest I googled 'homesteading in Oregon' and found these very interesting articles :
It's a great pity the Homestead Act was repealed!

Everything good gets repealed! Ugh.
I think there are. A lot of homesteaders and farmers but they're still really behind on the times, so they definitely wouldn't have made it to Steemit yet. Even hard to find quality ones on FB!
Wow! Thanks for the links! I found historical docs about my property on the blm one! Been looking for more information!

If we build it, they will come (hopefully).
Good that you found the historical docs about your property.
We haven't had anything like a Homestead Act in the UK. Although our property was created in the 1700's under the Tŷ Unnos 'scheme' where if someone could build a house on common land in one night and have smoke rising from the chimney by morning they would get the freehold of the land :
